Oh..and then there's the Jabberwocky poem

?Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

?Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!?

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought?
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.

And as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

?And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!?
He chortled in his joy.

?Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

Almost anything that you enjoy striaght can be read while tripping. My personal favorite so far was Dan Simmon's Endymion. I mean, it's not like normal reading, mostly I do it on the way up and during the last two hours...never been able to near peak...and not on a 5 gm'er either. But, if you don't mind re-reading pages...sometimes 3 or 4 times, reading can be a blast and offer some insight not to be found normally

Be well

you have to check out Jorge Luis Borges.
most of his work consists of short stories.
there's a collection called 'labyrinths',
which i highly recommend. i don't think
it includes 'the aleph' though, which
you should really read as well.

oh.. and 'flatland' by Edwin A. Abbott.
everyone should read this book.
it does contain a large dose of misogyny,
but if you can look past this it's well worth
it. the implications of the ideas presented
in this book are quite mindblowing.

I dont know if this one's already been said, but just about any Carlos Castaneda book is good for a little cerebral stimulation. If you're into the outdoors read some Tom Brown Jr. books, he learned wilderness survival from an old indian too, and his books are meant to pass on those ancient traditions.

Okay.. Just thought i'd bring back this thread to tell you about this book called The Art Of Looking Sideways. Not sure how I can describe it, but I reccommend that you guys check it out. It's basically a collection of Moments, Ideas, Reflections... 500 + pages. The chapters have titles like "creativity", "colour", "dreaming, "synchroncity", "intelligence", "perception"...and so on. In other words, trippy.

i am reading "siddhartha" by herman hesse
buddhist literature - pretty cool so far
it was the inspiration behind the lyrics of "pyramid song" by radiohead
great song great book

also read "monkey" a while ago by Wu Chen someone (not sure on exact name)
classic chinese story of Monkey Pigsy Sandy and Tripitaka on their trek to india
there was the greatest japanese TV series based on it - really cheesy 70's gear

The hashish club 2: from huxley to lennon ed. by peter haining. There's stuff from neal cassady, kerouac, burroughs, ginsberg, leary, watts, terry southern, lennon, hunter thompson, jerry garcia, and a bunch of other people who I don't remember.


of course the electric kool aid acid test by tom wolfe, and anything by terence mckenna.


also LSD: the private sea and the search for god. this book is a really good intro to the philosophic and religious ramifications (and context) of the trip.
